I have had the absolute worst experience not only with the company, but with their employees .Specifically with this location but also with the AT&T in Carson, CA. To begin ,my family and I are new customers switching over from Verizon. We have a total of 4 smartphones, 1 flip phone, and are Direct TV customers. At the time of the switch the Android Note7 has just came out , and they had the buy 1 get 1 free promotion. So we all got the Note7 , and with time the first recall was announced. We went straight to the AT&T in Carson and explained how we received e-mails about how we MUST go in and exchange the phones for a loner in the meantime while the new ones are shipped. The employee told us that we do not , and that it was a safety precaution but that we should just wait for the new batch of Note7 to come in .I was concerned especially because I was hearing about all these instances of the phone exploding and what not, but she insisted on not exchanging them just yet. We then waited until the new batch were available at a store, thats when we came to this location. Having been 4 phones we were exchanging I knew it would take some time, the young lady that began helping us had to leave and the assistant manager took over. The assistant manager Omar Tapia made my brother and I extremely uncomfortable .They still had a few hours until close but he felt the necessity to rush us , keep in mind we don't have control of how fast the phones take to transfer all information from one to another.The phones finally finished and we left. A few weeks later the second recall occurred. I completely understand the stores are not at fault for the phones being defected, but as customers were just doing as told and returning the phones.We come back ,the gentleman that began helping us had no idea what he was doing he had to keep leaving to ask his manager what he should do .Any question we had he couldn't answer. We wanted to exchange them for the iPHONE 7, and were ok with paying more monthly but because they were on backorder they told us we have to preorder which is fine. Then, Omar Tapia stepped in and said "Being new customers to AT&T you can not pre-order , you would have to turn in the Note7, pre-order the iPHONE 7 and wait for the shipment to come in which can take up to 2-4 months ,then come in and transfer all the information." I asked if in the mean time they can provide us with loner phones, he said no. He really expected all 4 of us to be without a phone for those 2-4 months . He showed no real interest in providing any good, let alone descent customer service . I honestly felt he could care less and was telling me you're screwed there's nothing we can do for you here. That is exactly how i took it and we left, I called the company and they were more than willing to order the iPHONE 7 for all 4 of us .We would of course pay a bit more like i mentioned earlier but they would honor the buy one get one, as well as all the activation fees and the reimbursements promised due to certain circumstances. We got 1 iPHONE 7 in the mail and they cut our phones off.Turns out whoever helped me the first time I called misinformed me ,the iPHONE 7 is not eligible but that the 6s and 6s plus is , they then told me to go to the store and that they now have the phones in stock and must honor it due to our "open case" as they called it. We come back ,Felipe was more than willing to help us , Omar Tapia then again stepped in and said he would not honor our contract or what they told us and that if we chose to exchange at their store we have to cancel our current contract, sign up for a new one where we now have to pay all 4 phones. I left the store so upset with them , and with the company itself. Everybody I talk to whether in person or on the phone tell me something different EVERY time. The switch over to AT&T from Verizon has been nothing but a dissapointment and all the money I have spent in just the few months i have been with them because of all the extra charges every time something is done or "fixed" according to them. It is ridiculous ,Omar Tapia is an absolute shame to the company he should not be in customer service. Not every customer is right i understand .Some customers can be difficult and flat out wrong but we were not them. We were patient and we came into this store looking for help. He approached us every time with his arrogant, stubborn attitude , with no intention to make a difference to truly help my family.Believe me when I say I will report this to corporate . read more
